It happened then One of the youngsters who had followed him suddenly fired a shot He just heard 'bang' and then his blood began to run cold. It was when he heard another 'bang' and he was shot for the second time that he at last began to feel pain. Villagers dressed his wounds with torn up pieces of sackcloth.
